Gender Representation
In the primeval clip gender is represented in several different ways.
Firstly, the character Abby is seen operating a digger which straight away suggests she is not a stereotypical female. We see her swing the digger round and hit the sabre tooth cat with it. Her operating the digger and when she is seen holding a gun slightly suggests she is more brave and stronger than the stereotypical female.
The male character dressed in pink is not also not what you would expect from a stereotypical man. The first reason for this is that he is dressed in mainly pink clothes, a pink scarf and a hat. During the conforntation with the man in the barn he doesnt have a gun so he picks up a shovel near him. Also when he is given a gun to hold near the end of the clip he seems quite happy and chuffed that he is holding a gun.
The woman who goes to the barn and is threatened by the man is probably a stereotypical female. She is dressed in very smart clothes including a black dress and a long white coat. This suggests she takes car with her looks and image like most females are stereotypically seen to be. When she is held at gunpoint she is powerless to do anything and falls to the ground horrified. She is then saved however by her friends and says that she is annoyed because she fell on her brand new coat. Again this suggests she is very image aware and cares for her looks as after nearly being shot she is only worried about her coat.
